The Yule Ball

Sonia shook her head. "No, I would love for you to walk me home."

Elrohir smiled and stood, holdinng his hand out to help her up. "Shall we go then?"

"Yes,we should probably go." She says allowing him to help her up. She blushed softly. "Thanks.

"Welcome." Elrohir replied. He walked her to the door and opened it, finding Aslan standing on the porch with Maik hanging from one of his burly arms.
"Found her!" He said proudly.

Sonia blushed. "What happened? Is she okay?"

Maik glared at noone in particular through one of her black eyes and insisted she was fine.
"She's been starting fights again." Aslan clarified.
"Didn't start it." Maik grumbled. "Just finished it."

Sonia laughed softly. "I just got that deja vu feeling."

Elrohir chuckled. "Me too."
He gave Maik a seious brother look. "You worry me."
Maik just glared at the floor and squirmed a little in Aslan's grip.

Sonia sighed. "Maybe you should let her go." She tells Aslan.

Aslan shrugged and complied dropping Maik on her feet.
"I'm taking Sonia home." Elrohir told her, "Be here when I get back."
Maik nodded. "Thank you for coming Sonia."

Sonia blushed. "Just remember, If you ever want to talk, you know where I live." she says.

"I'll remember." Maik said.
Elrohir took Sonia's hand and led her down the street. "Remember Maik! You are NOT to leave!" He called over his shoulder.

Sonia blushed when he took her hand. She smiled sweetly trying to avoid everyone's gaze.

Maik and Aslan watched them go, and out of the corner of his eye Elrohir thought he saw Maik smile.
Elrohir squeezed Sonia's hand gently and kept walking, a blush reddening his ears.

Sonia stole a quick glance back at Maik and Aslan before turning to Elrohir. "So, um, when should I expect you tomorrow?"

Elrohir shrugged. " 10:00 if that's ok."

Sonia nodded. "That will be fine. Did I ever thank you for taking me, yet?"

"I'm not sure." Elrohir said thoughtfully. "But I wouldn't mind if you did."

Sonia laughed softly. "Okay then, Thanks for taking me to get some milkshakes."

Elrohir smiled and laughed. "You're very welcome. I'll gladly do it again."
